Rating: 4/5

A thrillingly inappropriate teacher/student m/m romance. Shawn Wyatt is just 22 years old, but after his parents' deaths, all he inherits is the caring responsibilities for his two much younger siblings. Despite holding down two jobs and working every hour he can, he's struggling to make rent, and, exhausted by all his many responsibilities, his grades are failing, and his university scholarship is in jeopardy. 

Derek Rutledge is the worst of his professors. Strict and uncaring, Rutledge isn't interested in "personal circumstances", but he is interested in Shawn. And when Rutledge agrees to trade a passing grade for a sexual favour, Shawn is desperate enough to go through with it. He may be straight, but it isn't as bad as he thought it would be, and when Rutledge offers to pay him regularly for repeat performances, he knows he would be silly to turn it down.

The longer the deal continues, however, the more the lines between business and pleasure become blurred. Shawn begins to see beneath Rutledge's tough exterior, and Rutledge begins to appreciate that Shawn isn't quite the lazy, uncaring student he had first thought. 

Just a Bit Twisted is the first book in Alessandra Hazard's "Straight Guys" series. The writing was fluent, pacy, and deliciously sexy, and had me immediately downloading the second book. A definite recommend for fans of m/m romance.
